Andrew Garfield recently told Yahoo! Movies, when asked about the current arc of the planned four-movie Amazing Spider-Man franchise, that he is unsure that he would return for a fourth installment. Of course, this merely a very clever way to ask for a pay raise.

“I mean I’m under contract for another one after this… as far as a fourth one? That’s not anything to do with me. But yeah, I think what we’re doing here is we’ve established the world. And now we get to really play inside that world,” said Garfield.

Director Marc Webb added:

“We did think about this movie, from the very beginning, these movies as a series of movies, as a trilogy, to be totally frank.”

“I think [for] the fourth movie, what we’ve discovered is there are so many ancillary characters, that have enormous, cinematic potential that there may be other ways to exploit those characters, in a way that is exciting and fun and worthwhile. It might not just be a ‘Spider-Man’ movie.”

Interesting. Would you be interested in a spinoff featuring a Spider-man villian? Perhaps Venom, the Sinister Six or Black Cat?
